Banter Over a Cigarette

By Eldon K. Roth

Descripción

A BlogCast where I discuss things that interest me, things that concern me, strange things in the media, interviews with podcast novelists, movie reviews, and as well as occasionally highlighting musicians and fellow podcasters from time to time

Here be the promo I was talking about for the last couple of weeks. Listen to it for all the details, one to post tomorrow as well. And probably the day after that, and the one after that two. Got to get all these things out thank to my nemesis and his de

I’ll have to appologize for this one. I knew that this one needed editing but, meeting NaNoWriMo goals got in the way of that as well as some personal issues that I’ve been trying to work through. The show hasn’t been edited and I’

From what I gathered from my Twitter feed over the weekend, everybody seems to be talking about the ACTA and how everybody seems pissed off by it. It would also seem that for once I got on the band wagon early because my cohosts and I discussed this in th

Here we go ladies and gentlemen. Would have had this promo A LOT sooner but it took a while to get Kyle’s line. Take this promo send it to everyone you know, send it to your favorite podcast. Alternatively if you have your own podcast you’re m

This week we covered some interesting topics, but what I’d like to focus on is our feature. I talked with Scott Roche about NaNoWriMo at length and we discussed some of the main pitfalls that writers face from a domestic standpoint, as well as some

This is the audio part to the essay that I posted on Drawing a Blank. This is also a preemptive apology. You see, Ben, has had tomorrows episode since last night and he chose to go to bed early today instead of doing the show notes. There’s really n

That’s right boys and girls, Kyle came back after the month like I said we would. This one is a bit long, but stay tuned, silliness ensues. 0:00 Intro 6:20 Front End Banter 13:45 Break: Erotica a la carte promo 14:55 Apple Tablet 20:25 NSF Porn Prob

Righty-O! Here I am with the next episode for your listening pleasure. We created a new segment as well as had a guest host. I really hope you enjoy the show and I’ll see you next week. [Ben thinks it’s fun to make me look bad. So instead of d

Alright. Here’s Episode 4. On time again. I think I’m starting to get the hang of this again. And so is Ben. It used to take forever to get him to find time to record, and then having him transcribe the shownotes was always like pulling teeth.

After two weeks of interviews we bring you the season opener. It ran a bit long but that’s to be expected of the first show we’ve recorded in almost a year. Most shows will usually run abour 45 minutes long after this unless it’s another

This is the second part of my interview with Dan Sawyer of Down From Ten and the Antithesis Progression. Our season opener will hit the feed by next week and if I can’t seem to get either one of my regular hosts behind the microphone I’ll eith

ExplícitaBOaCS3Ep1: An interview with Dan Sawer of the Antithesis Progression (Part 1 of 2)

Yes boys and girls, that’s right! We’re back, for reals this time, look I even have an episode to prove it. The first two episodes of this season will be the interview with Dan Sawyer, our actual season opener will be the third episode. The re

This song is called “Ill Business”. It’s from a local Indiana band called Once a Friend and they kindly allowed me to use this way back in March when I was originally intending to launch the show. We’ll be throwing more things from

Well, I was going to have Ben come over today and do the show notes today. That didn’t happen because Ben is deciding to be a dick, and it seems like he’s only using me as a convenience to him because I’m the only person he knows that ha

I’ll have to admit that I just used the elections as an excuse to post this one late. Partying on Halloween and discovering Doctor Who left me a bit too lazy to work on anything over the weekend and that is unfair to you, the listeners. Myself and t

Well this one was a long time coming. I felt that I needed to add a little bit more to the show. Or more to the point, I wanted to add something that would counteract Ben either sitting their quietly and saying nothing when he wasn’t flipping out or

Once again I’m sorry that this is so late. But I’ve got the whole thing with school going on. That and I’ve gotten really addicted to one of my DS games. The main reason this one was so late is that I’ve been trying to teach Ben so

The reason that this is being posted so late on a Monday is because I didn’t work on the production aspect of the show at all this weekend because I bought a Nintendo DS on Saturday and I had been playing Contact, Advance Wars: Days of Ruin, and Loc

I’m sure at least 3 out of the 10 listeners were dissapointed to see that there was no new episode on Monday. I’m sure that the other four didn’t notice and the remaining 2 weren’t worried about it. Well I’ve been busy getti

It seems that unknown forces and family have conspired to keep me from accomplishing any work this weekend. Weekends are my time to catch up on homework and work on the show. This summer with a sick mother and a girlfriend was basically “Go here get

Not really. I was just drinking a pint while doing the show. And at times I was happy to have the booze. I’m sorry that I’m late in uploading this week but I was at Holiday World all day Sunday. And I woke up with a cold Monday morning, and a

Here it is, it took me a while to get it out but like I said, its Wednesday so here it is. It took me some time and frustration and love to put this together and now I have a good idea of how much work it is going to take to turn this into […]

Well this was a fun one to do. Ben and I ended up rambling and going off topic a bit and I had to edit out about half the audio that was recorded. There were a few things I wanted to correct myself on during the show but I really cant think of any of [&#8

I decided to change things up this week and add a little more into this weeks episode due to the fact that I’ve been gone for a while. So I decided to bring my friend into the show and he did pretty good. There were some issues he had but nobody is

Sorry this one is late. At least its still Monday when I’m posting this. Late last night I got to sit down with P.G. Holyfield of the “Murder at Avedon Hill Podcast Novel. The interview did run long, three hours, but it seemed to be over in a

Anybody who has known me since the beginning of the year knows how big of a podcast nut I am. Oh believe me anybody that offers up an ear to me will have it talked off non stop about podcasting if I get the chance. Podcasters likeTee Morris, Pip Ballantin

Despite all of the difficulties that I had to face to get all of this put together I finally got it all finished up. Timeline 00:00 Intro 01:30 Introduction 10:35 The Japanese love steroids 14:10 Nerds with way too much time on their hands 15:38 The most

I’ve encountered a few audio problems the last couple of days while trying to record but I refused to let that stop me. I spent some time here and there during various parts of the day recording things here and there. I managed to get the intro and

At first I thought the strange white noise that I was encountering during my recording was just me losing my mind. But after more recording today I encountered it again. Its not any sort of outside interference its a problem with the mic. I had Pip Ballan

So I sit down to record the intro and outro for the first episode of BOaC Season Two and I do a sound check on my mic and I’m getting some really weird feedback. There is a constant white noise being picked up by the mic. It does it when the fans ar
